  • Benefit from our shared CAFA/ARAC (Airborne Regiment Association of Canada) bursary which sees $2000 annually awarded to a deserving serving airborne soldier or a family member of an association member. Click here for criteria and application process.

  • Be part of an organization that annually recognizes the most deserving serving Canadian Airborne soldier of the year through the competitive awarding of a trophy which was originally donated for this purpose by the 1st Canadian Parachute Battalion Association. Click here for more information.
    Have the opportunity to visit the Canadian Army Advanced Warfare Centre in Trenton, now the home of our Spring Annual General Meetings. The school specializes in parachute, mountain, Arctic, Patrol Pathfinder, and other unique skills training and it is a perfect place for us to gather annually to conduct the important business of the Association.
